**Birthday List Updates - There is a calendar on the front pew for 2019. We would appreciate it if you would take a few minutes after worship to write in your family members names on the dates of their birthdays. We don’t want to miss wishing a happy birthday to anyone!

Daniel Tuchez, a Hispanic pastor in Tennessee, said that for years he knew there was more out there that his church needed to do. Through the IMB, he got connected with the unreached in Southeast Asia, a place crying out for the hope of the gospel. He says churches shouldn’t worry about their size – God can work through you.

Youth News!!!

**The Youth Group is having a Church-wide Christmas Card Exchange! If you will be sending Christmas cards to other members of our church, bring them to our Christmas card box and save yourself the cost of the stamp! We are suggesting a donation of $0.25 or more per card (still saves you money and helps our youth raise money for camp!). Cards need to be in to us no later than December 19 and will be delivered on Dec 16 and Dec 23. Any undeliverable cards will be left on fellowship table or in appropriate Sunday school room.

Deacon Family Ministry List - Our deacons are always willing to help you in any way they can. Your deacon representatives are listed below according the first letter of your last name.

Our preaching is designed to inspire and educate believers, and to lead people to faith in Jesus Christ.

Our teaching is Christ-centered and Bible-based.

Our ministries extend to all generations, from infants to seniors. We have a healthy balance of generations at Bethel.

Our missions are incarnational - meaning that while giving to missionaries is a priority for us, we believe that every Christian is called to live out our faith among our neighbors daily, and to be missionaries wherever we are.
